Biography
Space Pursuers started the year 2011 when two employees decided to form a band, Archie Yuki(Yuki) and Rejemiah Crispo(Rejie), because they want to express themselves through music and play in a rock and roll band.
At first, they jammed at Rejie’s house and they were making original music right away. Yuki is the one who writes the songs and he plays it to Rejie and they arrange it. They prefer to create original songs because Yuki said he doesn’t enjoy much playing cover songs and he admits that if you commit mistake while playing cover, it can be easily noticed.
Name of the Band
They have a lot of names that were considered for the name of the band; The Arche, Raise Your Hands, Paper Mache’, The Yuki, Pencil Case, Kokom Bond, and Cherub Rock. It was difficult to pick a name specially if there are bands already using it. Until one time, Yuki was reading inspirational books, he read word pursue, he decided that it’s a quite catchy name if you make it as a person, Pursuer. He came up name Space Pursuer because it seems galactic to him. The name also reflects their attitude towards different things they do in life. If you want something, you have to pursue it.
They became friends because they both love music and passion for playing in a band . They have different taste of music, Rejie is more into of alternative rock music like Greyhoundz, Wilabaliw, Kamikazee, Urban Dub, and Punk rock. While, Yuki is more into The Beatles, E-heads, OPM Rock, and Brit-pop Rock. With these influences, the music that they create sounds so interesting and fun to listen to.
They looked for a bass player and a drummer for the band, eventually, Yuki met Drzon in a Music Shop in Cubao and Kat was found in the internet.
Plans
As of now, they continue to write songs and play to different bars in Metro Manila. They are scheduled soon for a multi-track recording for their songs and looking for people that can help them to record their songs professionally. Their music can be considered alternative OPM Rock but Yuki said that it’s Experimental Rock because he doesn’t want their music to be put in a box.
“Musicality wise, we always improve or change just like in our life, we improve and change.”- Yuki
“Gusto lang namin yung ginagawa namin’-Rejie.
The band is looking for opportunities that their music will be appreciated and be heard in the music scene in the whole world.
